Shi Chui was not at home, which meant Yun Wan'er was also away! With both of them gone, had they gone on a trip?
We are at Mount Tai! I’ll ask Old Yun tomorrow how long they plan to stay here. They probably won’t be here for long; they might leave tomorrow. Once they reach the next stop, I’ll send you the address so you can mail it over!
Shi Tian hung up the phone in frustration, looking at the filled-out delivery form. After a moment of thought, he tore it up and decided to deal with it tomorrow!
With Su Xueyi and Sun Lang watching the shop, Shi Tian decided to try his luck with fishing.
Old Zhang had been doing exceptionally well these past few days, catching Bai Tiao by the pound. The fishing conditions right in front of the shop were surprisingly good! The day before yesterday, he caught a few Shi Ban weighing five to six pounds each, which he sold off quickly. Then he bought a large freezer specifically for storing Bai Tiao.
Yesterday was even better; he filled a basin with Bai Tiao bait and caught Black Sea Bream and Shi Ban one after another. He only closed up shop when it was time to go home.
Today, seeing him crouched there before dawn, Shi Tian figured he must have set up bait again. It would be a shame not to take advantage of Old Zhang’s spot! After all, he had taken away boxes of Bai Tiao!
Finding his rod, Shi Tian grabbed a few shrimp and headed across the street.
How’s the bite today? Looks like you’re having some good luck! Shi Tian asked with a grin as he glanced at Old Zhang’s not-so-well-covered fish bucket.
It was fine this morning, but now it’s dead! Old Zhang said nonchalantly as he discreetly covered his fish bucket.
Dead? Who are you trying to fool? I saw you catch a fish just earlier! Old Zhang wasn’t the fishing novice he used to be!
No bites? I’ll give it a shot too; who cares if there are bites or not! Just having some time to fish is already a blessing! With that, Shi Tian cast his hook out along the edge.
The shop had opened, and after working hard for so long, he finally had some time to relax!
Before this, he had no points and spent every day thinking about how to sell hooks to earn points! Now that he finally had some points saved up, it was time to enjoy life!
It was a pity that Su Xueyi worked part-time; otherwise, he could rest five days a week and only needed to manage the Bait Contest on Saturdays and Sundays!
After casting along the edge a couple of times, Shi Tian felt his rod bend. A smile crept onto his face as he quickly reeled in.
The line was short when casting along the edge, making it easy to pull in. Although the fish wasn’t small, it still felt quite satisfying.
A five-pound Bigeye Mullet was safely caught; Shi Tian’s mood instantly brightened.
He switched out the bait and continued casting along the edge, wanting to see how effective Old Zhang’s baiting had been over these past few days!
Where’s Shui Laoban today? As he pulled up another Black Sea Bream, Shi Tian asked Old Zhang, who looked somewhat dejected beside him.
Shi Tian had only been there for half an hour and already caught two fish while Old Zhang had only managed one Shi Jiu Gong. This made Old Zhang feel a bit envious!
They went out to sea! Yesterday Shui Bi Zhang showed Shui Laoban a video of catching Tuna; by mid-afternoon, they contacted a boat and set out early this morning! Casting his line toward where Shi Tian just caught a fish, Old Zhang said calmly.
Shui Bi Zhang is quite impressive; he has really got Shui Laoban under his thumb! From Heikeng to Ye Diao, and now upgraded to Reef Fishing, he still isn’t satisfied and has dragged Shui Laoban all the way to Nan You!
Is Tuna really that easy to catch? Thousands of dollars per person, drifting at sea for four or five days, and it’s very likely that you won’t catch a single fish!
I silently gave a thumbs up to Shui Bi Zhang, took off the fish, replaced it with Live Shrimp, and resumed fishing along the edge! After several days of Bai Tiao baiting, the fishing conditions here are indeed quite good. It wasn’t even dark yet, and Shi Tian had already caught six or seven fish!
What’s going on? Are we packing up so early today? Seeing Old Zhang showing signs of packing up, Shi Tian pulled out his phone to check the time and casually asked.
There’s a gathering tonight; it’s about time to leave! Shaking his head, Old Zhang grumbled: Why gather early or late? Just when the fish are biting, what kind of drink are they having?
After catching so many fish, can you eat them all by yourself? Glancing at Shi Tian’s Fish Bucket, Old Zhang offered him a cigarette and asked.
Hearing this, Shi Tian was taken aback for a moment and smiled slightly: Uncle Zhang, are you going to sell the fish later? Why don’t you take me along to learn the way?
Since Old Zhang was leaving, Shi Tian also started packing up. It was indeed difficult to handle so many fish; taking them home would be too much, and freezing them would ruin their taste. Sun Lang clearly wasn’t someone who cooked, and he was busy chatting with Su Xueyi. The two of them were constantly ordering takeout; who had time to cook?
Alright, I’ll go get the car; just wait for me outside the shop! Old Zhang didn’t linger and took his Fishing Gear with him. In less than two minutes, he drove out.
Shi Tian didn’t actually need Old Zhang to show him the way to sell fish. Old Zhao, who delivered Live Shrimp to his shop every day, was doing quite well in business. His stall sold various live seafood.
Uncle Zhang, you know Old Zhao who delivers Live Shrimp to my shop every day, right? Let’s go check the price there first with the fish. If the price is good, you can bring your fish out too. If not, then don’t bother!
Shi Tian’s collaboration with Old Zhao was pretty good; a few fish here and there wouldn’t make much difference in price. Once Shi Tian brought them out, he had to sell them to Old Zhao anyway. After all, he couldn’t jeopardize their partnership over just a few fish—how much could the price really differ?
Old Zhang was different; if the price wasn’t right, he would have to find another Fishmonger. After all, selling fish affected Old Zhang’s family status; this matter couldn’t be taken lightly!
Alright, I know what the price should be; I checked online—can’t go wrong! Giving Shi Tian a reassuring look, they headed towards Old Zhao’s stall.
Old Zhao, I just caught a few fish; I can’t eat them all by myself and don’t feel like cooking either. Can you take a look at whether you want them? Shi Tian placed his Fish Bucket in front of Old Zhao and asked as he opened it.
